Video Summary

Jerome Lee, co-founder of Health Tech Without Borders, discussed their mission of leveraging technology to provide healthcare in crisis situations, including conflicts and climate disasters. During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, they mobilized 800 volunteers and four tech companies, delivering 62,000 telemedicine consults. Emphasizing primary care and mental health support, they collaborated with local specialists to provide ongoing care. Most consultations were text-based due to connectivity issues. Additionally, they supported virtual education for medical students by setting up mobile classrooms, highlighting the scalability and potential of tech-driven healthcare solutions in crisis settings.
